It was the deadliest string of shark attacks the world has ever seen. In 2011, sharks in Réunion, a beautiful island, way out in the Indian Ocean started biting people way more than ever before and with lunatic violence.

Jon Haidt's main points: - No smartphones before high school. Parents should delay children’s entry into round-the-clock internet access by giving only basic phones (phones with limited apps and no internet browser) before ninth grade (roughly age 14). - No social media before 16. Let kids get through the most vulnerable period of brain development before connecting them to a firehose of social comparison and algorithmically chosen influencers. - Phone-free schools. In all schools from elementary through high school, students should store their phones, smartwatches, and any other personal devices that can send or receive texts in phone lockers or locked pouches during the school day. That is the only way to free up their attention for each other and for their teachers. - Far more unsupervised play and childhood independence. That’s the way children naturally develop social skills, overcome anxiety, and become self-governing young adults. Arguments for and Against Banning Social Media Until 16: Arguments For Banning Social Media for 16-Year-Olds Mental Health Issues: Social media can cause anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem due to constant comparison and social pressure. Cyberbullying: Teenagers are vulnerable to online bullying and harassment, leading to severe emotional distress. Privacy Concerns: Teens might not understand privacy settings, risking exposure to personal information and online predators. Addiction and Distraction: Excessive use can lead to addiction, reducing time for studies, physical activities, and face-to-face interactions. Sleep Disruption: Social media use before bed can disrupt sleep patterns and lead to poor-quality sleep. Body Image Issues: Exposure to unrealistic body standards can lead to negative body image and eating disorders. Misinformation: Teens may be susceptible to fake news, affecting their understanding of the world. Arguments Against Banning Social Media for 16-Year-Olds Communication: Helps teens stay connected with friends and family, fostering social bonds. Educational Resources: Provides access to educational tools and resources. Skill Development: Develops digital literacy and communication skills. Self-Expression: Offers a platform for sharing interests and creativity. Awareness and Activism: Raises awareness about social issues and encourages civic engagement. Support Networks: Online communities provide support and a sense of belonging. Parental Supervision: With guidance, teens can learn to use social media responsibly.
